Re: XF86Config.

Hello Peter,
Your modeline is far to fast,
Try the one which has a 48Mhz bandwidth. (Look in the lint).
Most smaller and older monitors just need low refresh. Find the modeline for 1024x768 and 60Hz refresh.

Thanks John,

But unfortunately adjusting the vsync and hsync didn't make any difference.
I did have a working XF86Config under Linux (XFree86 4.2.0 )but I haven't got a copy of that anymore , so it should be possible ! Just don't know what the magic parameter is to add to or change in the X11 Config file.

rgds,

It loads the X server succesfull but the display is isshowing 3 Vertical

The frequencies seem OK , but it is like the desktop is split up in 3.
USing an HP Ultra VGA 15 inch Monitior + a S3 Trio32/64 videocard .

Anyone a suggestion for me to check/change ?

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        HorizSync    30.0 - 86.0
        VertRefresh  50.0 - 130.0
EndSection

I think your monitor would not be able to cope with those ranges.
The HP Ultra VGA 17 seems to be limited to 30-64 Khz / 50-90 Hz.
The 15 inch is probably the same.  The effect you're seeing is
probably the result of the Horiz. frequency being way too high.

If reducing those ranges doesn't help, you could try it without
the 3dfx accelerator card.

John.
